Inside a Life Coaching Master’s Degree Program

Most programs that award a master’s degree in life coaching take two years to complete. Unlike undergraduate studies, most course work at this master’s level will be in the major field. Typical classes include an introductory course, as well as classes in transformation, psych synthesis, research and practical training.

The best programs also require a practicum and either a thesis or a project. In the practicum, master’s students develop practical skills in a supervised setting. Students demonstrate their knowledge of a research method through either their project or a master’s thesis.
